    The owner has restored the Inn to the best status ever! It has been remodeled to a historical status with furnishings, repainted and replaced as needed, and made it a great retreat for family and companies. It's a great place to stay!

    The location was superb. We were able to enjoy the town square, shops, restaurants, and the Dinosaur Valley State Park. We liked the creativity with breakfast and of course we thoroughly enjoyed the mystery murder dinner fun. Oh! We also walked...
